Vanessa and Alex were the coolest, we had so much fun together. Vanessa who is also in the military was up for anything, including the 2 mile walk we took around the lake to make these photos. Alex was funny and witty and during my time with them I could see why these two were a perfect match for each other. Congrats Vanessa and Alex as you welcome your new baby girl.
2015 was a pretty interesting year for me, it was one of immense growth and vast learning. During the year I learned a lot about myself as a photographer, completely embraced my vision and my approach to photography while limiting external influences and relying heavily on my unique voice. I was invited on several occasions to speak about photography and created my first creative portraiture workshop , so it's safe to say that 2015 was a year of living outside of comfort zones. I was privileged to photograph some amazing couples and weddings and really look forward to what 2016 has in store.
"Best" is extremely subjective, what we consider our best images will differ from person to person unless judged by a standard set of rules but what fun will that be? The images presented here are my favorites for many reasons, some being their technical complexity, the circumstances in which they were created, the realization of a vision, what I was experiencing at the time when they were created, the visual impact of the images, how the images make me feel and what they stand for. Here are my favorite images from 2015.
Meet the Moores... Dannie, Renee and their amazing daughters Sarai and Kayln. Dannie and Renee are wedding photographers from Kentucky. They planned a family trip to Washington DC and prior to coming, decided they would like to get a few family photos taken.
What's that old saying.... "Family is everything". Now this family... is everything! Dannie is a man's man, cool, calm, easy going, Renee is caring, bubbly and extremely detail oriented (figured I'd throw that in there). Sarai is chill.. soft spoken, polite, I see a lot of daddy in her and Kayln? Oh Kayln, she is the Sun. Here are some of the photos we were able to create during our wonderful time together.
